16 Hungry For Power (1/2)
And the next day after acknowledging from the reliable messengers that no enemy had the temerity to show up at Caracus, Gus stormed out towards the war field.
”Good Gracious , what do we do with this kid now? I hope he will be ok. You guys can go now and aid to Caracus and see if there are any signs of war today or tomorrow. If not; we will withdraw from Caracus in a week.” Mars narrates the message of whole planning to the five messengers and sends them away on their way.
In Caracus,
”General Gideon, a young boy has arrived claiming he is from Mindoro and wants to meet the villagers.” One of the warrior of Caracus informed Gideon about the unusual thing.
”Take him to wherever he wants to go. We're not confiscating anyone here. Moreover tell him to find his people, himself.” Gideon roared agitated while Gus is standing near the door listening to all and at the same time despising him and Caracus.
Even though the villagers of Caracus changed. It doesn't mean anything for Gus, it's not like his parents are going to come back even if Caracus repents or mourn for the blood of people. So he will keep hating them more and more, gradually bubbling the poison within him.
”Ares! I'm here. How have you guys been doing?” Gus casually strides up towards Ares and his friends and tries to initiate a talk with them like it was another normal day in his village.
”Yo Gus! Did you sleep we.... You BASTARD! what the hell are you doing here?” Ares growled with half surprise and suppressed anger.
”Gus you stalker, pervert, pedo. I'm older to you why did you come all the way for me?” Tanya says with a grossed out expression.
”What? Why would I come for you? Wait and Eh how am I the pedo here? I'm the younger one among all of us. And no- I actually came for Ares.” Gus replies explaining and defending himself gulping the insulting words.
”Ahhhh. I see forbidden love.” Alex chips giving a smirk.
”Ohhhhh Ares, how can you? Is this the reason you are not accepting my love all these years? Are you into boys, perhaps?” Tanya questions Ares while her face becomes hot red as her imagination ran wild about boy love (her secret fantasy).
Gus and Ares are both astonished . ”Knock it off guys, I'm not in a mood to laugh at your jokes.”Ares says with an angry irritated tone.
”Hai hai let's leave them both for a while guys, they got mad that we're disturbing them” Albert adds fuel to fire while him and Alex try hard to control their giggles. This is their chance of getting back at Ares who is ridiculously popular among girls.
